Did you know that Norwescap is part of the NJ CEED program? This incredible initiative provides outreach, education, and screening services for breast, cervical, prostate, and colorectal cancer to eligible individuals who are low income, uninsured, or underinsured in Warren, Hunterdon, and Sussex counties. Yesterday, our Norwescap team came together to "Pink it Out" and learn more about the vital services we offer, including clinical breast exams, mammograms, and breast ultrasounds. Together, we’re committed to spreading the word and making a difference in our communities! Help us raise awareness and ensure everyone has access to these important services. #Norwescap #NJCEED #CancerAwareness #PinkItOut

About us
Norwescap serves as a foundation of support, offering crucial assistance, effective strategies, necessary resources, and referrals to help individuals and families overcome economic hurdles so they can thrive. By bridging the gap between surviving and thriving, Norwescap enables people to build a stronger, more stable future—despite the pressures of financial constraints. Our goal is to create opportunities that improve individual lives, bolster community resilience, and transform poverty into a springboard for economic empowerment and societal advancement. Norwescap was founded in 1965 during the presidency of Lyndon Johnson and his administration’s efforts referred to as the “War on Poverty,” further fueled by the advocacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Over the next six decades, Norwescap has grown to build a comprehensive foundation of programs and services that, together, positively impact tens of thousands of people each year. Our tailored portfolio of programs and services is designed to address a wide range of unique challenges faced by New Jersey residents, offering access to the essentials for a more secure life—stable housing, nutritious food, healthcare, education, and more.
